Memory like... like... one of those metal things with holes in it.

I was going to post a query because it was one of those things that you couldn't Google, and that wouldn't be on Hal Hall's SFRDB, nor in the Locus Index (which I find answers most things round here).

Only I've forgotten what it was.

If anyone a) knows what it is and b) what the answer was, I'd appreciate it.

Re: ... now what's the question

Sounds like a more productive day than mine. Someone handed me a fairly simple bug about 15 minutes ago. In the process of fixing it I've found a rather more intractable one...

I thought the term suggested either
(a)Bold as Love, only with Johnny Rotten
or (b)Steampunk, only with compost heaps.

I think I'd plump for the Amazonian tree frog, personally.
